"Romeo and Juliet" and the ESL Classroom.
Straughan, June
English Journal, v85 n8 p52-54 Dec 1996
Discusses an English teacher's approaches to introducing English-as-a-second-language students to Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet." Notes that the students responded with more enthusiasm than they had to any other selection they had read, and that the teacher had underestimated her students' ability to understand Shakespeare.
